A few quick postgame notes …. 

Nelson Cruz is in a walking boot. He was diagnosed with a severe bone bruise on the top of his right foot. He’s going to be out for a few days at least if not longer. They may not put Cruz on the disabled list immediately and instead wait to see how the foot feels the next two to three days. If it doesn’t improve, they can make it retroactive to Thursday.

“It was really scary for me and him,” manager Scott Servais said.

Right-hander Christian Bergman will make the spot start on Thursday afternoon. The Mariners will have to make a roster move to make room for Bergman. If they decided to DL Cruz, they could use his spot. They could also option Erik Goeddel back to Tacoma. Goeddel got the win on Wednesday night, pitching two scoreless innings and throwing a career-high 45 pitches. But that will make him unavailable for several days.

From the opposing clubhouse … Rangers manager Jeff Banister

 Overall thoughts: “I’m proud of how our guys continued to battle. They came back from that deficit there early, were able to get back and actually take the lead, tie the ball game up there in the ninth and push the runner across against their closer. We created some opportunities for ourselves late, but we were unable to push runners across.”

On the pitchers: “Tony Barnette threw the ball extremely well. Brandon Mann came in and threw the ball well for us. But Tony extremely well. What can you say about Claudio? He went out there, threw the ball extremely well. They got a couple of soft hits there late. He was up two strikes over Heredia and it looked like he the left the ball over the plate and Heredia got a barrel on it to score the run.”

On Alex Claudio: “He was the only guy out there that had any length. We made the decision to keep Claudio in knowing he was going to be getting the bulk of the innings as long as we stayed tied. Had we taken the lead, it would’ve been key but I thought Claudio had been in this situation before and he threw the ball extremely well.”
